Can we open it up again? Why was it even shutdown?
-
The thing that this crisis has really laid bare is how deeply people mistrust institutions and government. People really think Larry Hogan’s motives are something other than public health.
-
Oh ok I was just looking at the pic
-
Need a per capita violent crime stat there to compare. ETA: NYC one of the safest big cities nowadays.
-
It’s another excuse for people to exercise what they think of as “freedom” which really just means acting like a toddler and shirking their responsibilities as citizens.
-
Interesting. It doesn’t seem to me like we’d get to 3,000 deaths a day if we keep up the mitigation but I’m just spitballing obviously.
-
Could be our first sub 1,000 death day in a looooong time.
-
Hmmm, that seems to fly in the face of all the other models and also what we’re seeing. Does that not include social distancing or something?
-
Well, id say SOME people aren’t allowed to parent the way they see fit. The government seems cool with my parenting.
-
Yeah I’m just in my ivory tower ordering takeout watching Netflix living in lockdown paradise, it’s awesome, I wish they’d extend it through September.
-
I’m pretty neutral on when to end the shutdowns. Doesn’t seem like there is a consensus on when to roll things back and whether or not people will even go back to normal activities quickly. Obviously a lot of variables and not a lot of certainty about these decisions. It seems more like a guessing game given this is our first time doing this in recent history. The one thing that tilts me towards keeping it shut down is watching how much it annoys you, highly entertaining if nothing else.

Cool! I’ll be sure to check it out.
-
SMH Whatever you say!
-
Yeah he pictures everyone on here are like wealthy attorneys just vacationing from home laughing about the lockdowns maniacally
-
IMO it’s a money grab by the college board, they’re not going to have proctors or cameras, a student could easily have a parent, older brother, etc, help them. If they can’t ensure it’s a true secure test they should’ve cancelled it.
-
That makes sense. We have had a few days of declines although they haven’t been huge.
-
Nice! I haven’t been keeping up with VA. I’m imagining hogan is waiting for a declining trend that lasts 14 days, I hope they’re not like resetting the clock today because we went up a tiny bit.
-
I think the real reason is they actually need more time to train larry Hogan’s commando lockdown team...they’re coming for you, they’ve been on this board and seen your anti lockdown posts. sleep with with one eye open.
-
I think when @mappy posted the update that part was still showing yesterday’s number.
-
This post should be printed out and brought to our elected leaders as proof that our education system has failed miserably. It’s sad that people are this confused.
-
Pretty decent lightning/thunder show tonight. Some nice long rumbles.
-
Like I’m happy to criticize trump and Diblasio and I’m happy to give the governor of Georgia credit if this works out, I just don’t care.
-
Because you’re always framing this as an us vs. them culture war and some of us don’t like to play those games. IMO that framing that gets applied to everything is one is the most destructive things.
-
Yeah, maybe some totally unrepresentative sample of jackasses on Twitter, but no one in this forum, so why do you have to constantly beat that drum? Are you one of those culture warriors who had a fit of rage and hysterics when the Indian was taken off the butter box? It seems like you really like this stuff.
-
I tend to agree, it’s time to give it the old yeller treatment.
